HP's 2025 Touchscreen Laptop for 64% Off Is Almost Free, $300 Worth of Accessories Included

Gizmodoa day ago
A laptop upgrade doesn't have to be expensive, especially today. Right now, the latest 15.6-inch HP touchscreen laptop (2025 model) is available on Amazon for just $900 – a jaw-dropping 64% discount.
Best of all, the deal includes a full accessory bundle (valued around $300), with a 7-in-1 USB hub, wireless mouse, 128GB flash drive, cleaning kit, and Windows 11 Pro pre-installed. That's everything you need to get started with school, work, and play right away.

Stunning visuals, regardless of the content, are a given here. The laptop features a decent-sized touchscreen (a little over 15 inches) that happens to be Full HD, anti-glare, and flicker-free. 250 nits of brightness make for a comfortable viewing experience – you won't be left squinting at the screen in bright settings or struggling to make out details in the dim ones. The 85% screen-to-body ratio also means thinner bezels and more screen real estate, which is ideal for all tasks like browsing, streaming, studying, etc.
The machine is powered by a 13th Gen Intel Core i3-1315U processor that clocks up to 4.5GHz. It is ideal for most everyday tasks and even light gaming. Pair this with the 32GB of DDR4 RAM, and you've got yourself a solid multitasker. Storing old and new documents, files, applications, and media content is made possible with a generous 2TB SSD, which also ensures fast boot times. For visuals, there is Intel UHD Graphics, which holds up well for most non-intensive tasks.
When it comes to battery, you're looking at up to 8 hours on a full charge – enough for one full day at the office or college. Plus, since the laptop supports HP Fast Charge, you can get from 0 to 50% in just 45 minutes.
Port selection is just as impressive – USB-C, HDMI, and two USB-A ports for all your essentials. Wireless connectivity-wise, you're covered with Bluetooth 5.3 and Wi-Fi 6.
All of this is made even better with the accessory kit that gets you everything you need to get started. Just note that the kit is shipped separately, so it is likely going to arrive in a different package a few days later.
Bottom line – the laptop, even at its full price, is already a strong option. But at $900 with a 64% discount and a full accessory bundle that alone is worth $300, it's a great deal. You're getting solid performance, great battery life, and a bunch of other advanced features for one-third the price, so act fast.

Opendoor stock pops 10% as company says CEO will step down

Opendoor Technologies (OPEN) shares spiked as 8% in early trading Friday after the company announced that CEO Carrie Wheeler will step down, effective immediately. The company's board appointed Opendoor's chief technology and product officer Shrisha Radhakrishna as president and interim leader of the company. Opendoor, which uses iBuyer real estate technology to flip homes, said it was searching for a new CEO. Since going public through a SPAC transaction in 2020, Opendoor has yet to post a profitable quarter. The company received a warning in May that it faced potential delisting from the Nasdaq after trading under $1 for more than 30 days. Shares have surged more than 200% in the past month, powered in part by Carvana (CVNA) turnaround spotter EMJ Capital and speculative investors on Reddit's wallstreetbets, a haven for meme stocks. EMJ Capital founder and president Eric Jackson said in an X post on July 14 that his firm was taking a long position in Opendoor, which was then trading under $1 per share. "The communication on the earnings call from the CEO and the CFO was really awful," Jackson told Yahoo Finance last week. Jackson has been critical of Opendoor's top leadership, most recently following the company's latest quarterly results in early August, when the stock sank 20% following disappointing earnings forecast. Year-to-date Opendoor shares are up 100%. Sign in to access your portfolio

Why would Trump and Intel want to work together: Opening Bid top takeaway

Investors are in wait-and-see mode. Fed watchers have had quite a week, getting a hot Producer Price Index, a tame Consumer Price Index, and solid retail sales data out today. As it stands, markets are still betting on that September rate cut from the Jerome Powell-led Federal Reserve. There have been a few earnings stumbles in CoreWeave (CRWV), Applied Materials (AMAT), and Cava (CAVA), but a few bright spots from the likes of Cisco (CSCO). The Bullish (BLSH) IPO saw an enthusiastic response. And now markets cast their gaze to the highly anticipated meeting today between President Trump and his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin. The outcome of this meeting could have a host of surprises that bullish investors haven't even thought about! Stock analysis: Intel The Trump administration is reportedly in talks to have the US government take a stake in Intel (INTC). An Intel spokesperson didn't comment directly on this to me, but offered this: "Intel is deeply committed to supporting President Trump's efforts to strengthen U.S. technology and manufacturing leadership. We look forward to continuing our work with the Trump Administration to advance these shared priorities, but we are not going to comment on rumors or speculation.' The questions here are numerous. Why would the administration even want a stake in an Intel that is far behind chief rivals Nvidia (NVDA) and Advanced Micro Devices (AMD)? I encourage Trump to compare Nvidia's earnings report on Aug. 27 to the last disaster from Intel a few weeks ago. The president isn't known to hitch his ride to losers. Intel has been a loser and may stay that way in the chip game for some time. Then again, why would Intel want to get in bed with the government when embattled CEO Lip-Bu Tan and the board must act quickly to reorganize the company? I find it hard to believe the government will be a quiet minority shareholder! Intel has billions in cash and doesn't need the money that comes with terms from any government deal. There is a lot at stake here, as Intel should be a beacon of US chip-making, not the punching bag in tech circles. The company's financials have taken a major hit, with sales down for more than three straight years and earnings evaporating in the process. "[A stake would] be a big step for Intel, but right now Intel is on a horse and buggy compared to the Godfather of AI Jensen [Huang] and Nvidia," Wedbush tech analyst Dan Ives told me. Roundtable analysis: More tech When a Wall Street analyst who has been a bear on a stock for a while suddenly issues an upgrade, it always catches my attention. Today, we have that situation on Salesforce (CRM). DA Davidson analyst Gil Luria lifted his rating on Salesforce to Neutral from Underperform. Luria said investor sentiment has declined sharply on Salesforce in recent months as questions mount around the company's acquisition strategy and near-term margins. But what may not be factored into the stock is new activist investor activity, Luria said. Luria pointed out that noted activist investor Starboard Value — led by Jeff Smith — increased its stake in Salesforce by 47% this quarter, according to new 13F filings. Starboard pushed for big changes at Salesforce three years ago, which ultimately led to a new focus on margin expansion by CEO and co-founder Marc Benioff. Luria said, "We believe this is a signal there will be another round of investor activism and increased pressure on management to refocus on growth of the core business, additional margin expansion and hold off on dilutive M&A." Meanwhile, Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway sold 20 million shares of Apple (AAPL) during the period, according to a new 13F filing. Berkshire's Apple holdings remain its largest equity stake by market value, despite dropping by about $9.2 billion in the second quarter. Is Buffett signaling he is concerned about Apple's tariff exposure? Perhaps. After all, Apple did warn tariffs would hit its profits by $1.1 billion in the current quarter.

Where are millennials buying homes? Nashville ranks among top cities for young homebuyers

Millennials are buying homes at significantly different rates depending on the metro area, according to a study by SmartAsset. In some cities, as many as 1 in 25 residents aged 25 to 44 secured a conventional mortgage in 2024 alone. In contrast, other major metros saw fewer than 1 in 100 millennial-aged residents make a home purchase last year. "This disparity can cause divergent implications for local infrastructure, politics, and business demand among different metros," SmartAsset said. "Particularly with many Millennials at the peak of their earning potential, local tax bases, housing markets, and more may also be impacted by such trends." "Observed from another angle, high rates of Millennials investing in homes in an area may indicate prosperity in the job market, paired with a friendly housing market and economy." According to mortgage data, 4.08% of millennials in the Nashville area purchased a home in 2024, making Music City a top choice for millennial home buyers. Here's a closer look at where millennials are buying homes. Nashville ranks among top 10 cities for millennial homebuyers, study shows A total of 25,512 conventional mortgages were issued in 2024 the Music City area, with a median interest rate of 6.63%. Among millennial homebuyers, the median property value was $455,000, while the median income stood at $123,000, reported SmartAsset. The total population of the area was 2,104,235, with 624,627 residents aged 25 to 44, representing 29.68% of the population. Where are millennials buying the most homes? Raleigh, North Carolina leads the nation in millennial homebuying, with 4.5% of Raleigh-Cary residents aged 25-44 purchasing homes with conventional mortgages in 2024, the highest share among all metro areas studied. The Raleigh-Cary metro area was followed by Indianapolis-Carmel-Greenwood at No. 2, Charlotte-Concord-Gastonia at No. 3, and the Nashville Metropolitan area at No. 4. Rounding out the top five was the Cincinnati metro area. Methodology To find where millennials are purchasing homes at the fastest rates, SmartAsset analyzed 2024 Home Mortgage Disclosure Act data. The study focused on originated mortgages for people aged 25 to 44, comparing them to the size of the local population in the same age group based on 2023 U.S. Census Bureau estimates. The study also considered the median income of new millennial homeowners and the value of the properties they purchased. Diana Leyva covers trending news and service journalism for the Tennessean.
